i am having trouble with the carby on my buggy, if i cant fix it i will need another to replace it. the motor is a sp 1500. if i find a bigger or different carby (than the 28pict) i will need a different manifold as well. i have fitted a 31pict but it fowls the genny, even with 2 spacers.
any help would be great

cheers

My stock single-port 1500 came with a 30PICT, I'll gladly sell you either that or a 28PICT if you want.

it turns out there are spacers between the manifold and carby, it seems i squashed them by doing up the carby bolts too tight and the accelerator pump was foweling on the genny. My next question is why would there be spacers between the manifold and the carby?

cheers
